Does MotionX work even when there is no 3G signal and you are in the middle of nowhere or does it require a mobile data connection to work?
Thanks,

MotionX can work without 4G/3G Connection! Too you can import tracks, export tracks, download maps for offline use and so on.
I did use the first Delorme Inreach device together (emergency, livetracking, messenger) with an ipad (trackrecording, navigation) for both, transafrica and south america.
- My Friends and family did loves to watch my progress.
- Other travellers did send me Messages about places nearby
- I did feel save, because I know that I am able not just for trigger an SOS,
too for beeing able to to communicate in SMS style.
- I know that my friends are reachable, who look for help at sample - if i have an maintenance breakdown abroad (nothing which should lead to an SOS Call)
- I was able to update my Blog with shortmessages, together with my current coordinates.
I would start the same, if the trip leads to remote ares!
After some years of the trip:
The Map of delorme isnt working anymore, because they did merge with Garmin. The Links in my blog with the coordinates arent working anymore in my transafrica blog. Panamericana is working till now..
The tracked points of the delorem arent usable for anything else:
The GPX Track recorded with your smartphone, you can share/store und reuse, sooon you keep it..
